But it would seem that Lucene has always supported highlighting on NGram fields? as show by the example here:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1489 When I try to use highlighting with NGramming, none of the text is highlighted, and instead I get a long string in the highlighting field... In any case, can anything be done to support highlighting and NGrams in Solr as this functionality is imperative to my application :( Thanks for your help, Aodh.
